Koontz Company manufactures a number of products. The standards relating to one of these products are shown below. along with actual cost data for May. 128:37 Standard Actual Cost per Cost per Unit Unit Direct materials: Standard: 1.80 feet at $2.80 per foot $ 5.04 Actual: 1.75 feet at $3.00 per foot $ 5.25 Direct labor: Standard: 0.90 hours at $17.00 per hour 15.30 Actual: 0.95 hours at $16.40 per hour 15.58 Variable overhead: Standard: 0.90 hours at $7.40 per hour 6.66 Actual: 0.95 hours at $7.00 per hour 6.65 Total cost per unit $27.00 $27.48 Excess of actual cost over standard cost per unit $0.48 The production superintendent was pleased when he saw this report and commented: "This $0,48 excess cost is well within the 5 percent limit management has set for acceptable variances. It's obvious that there's not much to worry about with this product." Actual production for the month was 14,500 units. Variable overhead cost is assigned to products on the basis of direct labor-hours. There were no beginning or ending inventories of materials Required: 1. Compute the following variances for May a. Materials price and quantity variances. b. Labor rate and efficiency variances c. Variable overhead rate and efficiency variances Required 1 Required 2 Required 3 28:24 1a. Compute the following variances for May, materials price and quantity variances. 1b. Compute the following variances for May, labor rate and efficiency variances. 1c. Compute the following variances for May, variable overhead rate and efficiency variances. (Indicate the effect of variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (.e., zero variance). Input all a positive values.) sha 1a.

(Indicate the effect of e variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (1.e., zero variance). Input all am positive values. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 2 decimal places.) Excess of actual over standard cost per unit Less portion attributable to labor inefficiency: Labor efficiency variance Variable overhead efficiency variance Portion due to other variances
